in reply to NASA • • •Canada (where I live) never once 'locked down', we could always go out and shop at malls throughout the entire pandemic, I understand some American states may have introduced individualized 'lockdown' concepts
so with 'lockdown' poorly defined, and zero references as to what about 'lockdowns' caused an increase in methane...
...this is weird misinformation
